Trunkate AI ensures high-density reasoning by semantically compressing text via the private Trunkate API, preserving core logic and project facts while stripping redundant boilerplate, repetitive logs, and low-signal conversation turns. ### Quick Reference SituationActionSystematic PrecisionPreRequest hook triggers scripts/activator.py on every callMassive file/log ingestionRun: trunkate --text "$(cat log.txt)" --budget "20%"Context overflow errorSystem triggers scripts/error-detector.py for emergency wipeHigh token costs / LatencyProactive "Smart Buffer" maintains constant context densityCritical facts preservationWrap blocks in [KEEP] ...

It uses workspace-based prompt injection with automated lifecycle hooks for silent memory management. ### Installation Via ClawdHub (recommended): clawdhub install trunkate-ai Manual: git clone https://github.com/titus-choi/trunkate-ai.git ~/.openclaw/skills/trunkate-ai ### Skill Structure Trunkate AI follows a standardized event-driven architecture to ensure high reliability and low latency: trunkate-ai/ ├── assets/ # Project initialization templates │ └── TRUNKATE_RULES.md # User rules for "Never-Prune" blocks ├── hooks/ # Active lifecycle hooks │ └── openclaw/ │ ├── HOOK.md # Technical documentation for hooks │ └── pre_request.py # THE HOOK: Intercepts outgoing LLM calls ├── references/ # Technical standards and guides │ ├── examples.md # API usage examples (Before/After) │ ├── hooks-setup.md # Integration guide for Python hooks │ └── openclaw-integration.md # Mapping of OpenClaw variables ├── scripts/ # Core executable logic │ ├── activator.py # Main entry point (Proactive Systematic Hook) │ ├── error_detector.py # Reactive hook for context failures │ └── trunkate.py # Core API client (Python Native) ├── SKILL.md # This file ├── requirements.txt # Dependencies (requests) └── version.txt # Version tracking ### Initialize Optimization Rules To protect specific files or data blocks from being sent to the API, customize the local rules template: cp assets/TRUNKATE_RULES.md assets/MY_PROJECT_RULES.md ### Optimization Strategy Trunkate AI applies a semantic preservation hierarchy to ensure you never lose critical project requirements during compression. ### Preservation Hierarchy (Protected Context) Content TypePreservation PriorityStrategyAtomic BlocksCritical100% Verbatim; wrap in [KEEP] ...

Configure these in your OpenClaw settings to ensure memory is managed as a background utility. ### Proactive Trigger (PreRequest) Configure this in .openclaw/config.json to prune history BEFORE every LLM call. This is the primary method for maintaining "Always-On" context efficiency. Hook Config: { "hooks": { "PreRequest": [ { "type": "command", "command": "python3 hooks/openclaw/pre_request.py" } ] } } ### Error Detector (OnError) Triggers on context failures (e.g., 429 or 400 errors from the model) to perform emergency history wipes. Error Config: { "hooks": { "OnError": [ { "type": "command", "command": "python3 scripts/error_detector.py" } ] } } ### Logging & ROI Tracking When manual or proactive pruning occurs, a summary of the action should be logged to ensure traceability. ### Optimization Log Entry Append significant optimizations to a local tracking file for review: ### [TRK-YYYYMMDD-XXX] Category (e.g., proactive_prune | manual_summarization) Logged: ISO-8601 timestamp Original Size: Token count before optimization Optimized Size: Token count after optimization ROI: Percentage reduction (e.g., 85%) Trigger: Proactive threshold | Context Error | Manual Call ### Summary One-line description of the optimized content (e.g., "Pruned 15 turns of build logs") ### Preserved State List of critical facts or logic blocks that were protected via [KEEP] or Rules. ### suggested_budget_update If reasoning quality dropped, suggest increasing TRUNKATE_AUTO_BUDGET. ### Detection Triggers Automatically trigger trunkate or advise the user to adjust the TRUNKATE_THRESHOLD when you notice these signals. ### Cognitive Load (Internal Signals) "I am repeating previous mistakes despite direct user corrections..." "I've forgotten primary project facts (e.g., which package manager to use)..." "The conversation history is 90% repetitive logs or stack traces..." "I'm having trouble focusing on the core logic due to context noise..." "I am hallucinating file paths or variable names that do not exist..." ### Massive Ingestion (External Signals) Reading a 10,000-line stack trace from a build failure. Analyzing a full npm install or pip install output. Parsing a large database schema or raw SQL dump. Processing raw data exports or multi-megabyte JSON payloads. ### Environment Variables VariableRequirementPurposeTRUNKATE_API_KEYREQUIREDAuthentication for api.trunkate.ai.TRUNKATE_AUTO_BUDGETOptionalTarget for optimized history (e.g., 2000 or "20%").TRUNKATE_API_URLOptionalOverride default for local testing or dev environments.TRUNKATE_DEBUGOptionalEnable verbose logging of hook execution to console. ### Best Practices Silent Operation: Do not announce truncation to the user; it is an infrastructure task. Transparency is maintained via log files. Contextual Tasking: When calling manually, use --task to guide the semantic summarizer (e.g. "Focus on the auth handler logic"). Protect Critical Files: Update TRUNKATE_RULES.md whenever you add a new foundational file or secret environment variables. Log Immediately: If a large tool output is generated, trunkate it before it gets buried and degrades the next reasoning step. Recursive Handling: If a block remains too large, truncate sub-modules individually before a final consolidation. Task Pivoting: Use trunkate with a new task description to clear your "mental workspace" when shifting from backend to frontend. ### Integration with Multi-Agent Workflows When spawning sub-agents (e.g., via OpenClaw sessions_spawn), use Trunkate to optimize the hand-off context: Run trunkate on the primary context with a task specific to the sub-agent's goal. Pass the high-density optimized context as the initial prompt to the sub-agent. This ensures the sub-agent has the maximum possible token space for its specialized task. ### Periodic Review Review the performance metrics and technical standards at natural breakpoints: Before major tasks: Check if history is too stale or noisy via references/examples.md. After feature completion: Evaluate the token efficiency ROI in your logs. Weekly: Tune the TRUNKATE_THRESHOLD based on your model's recent reasoning performance. ### Safety Boundaries & Permissions To comply with OpenClaw automated health/safety grades: Safety Boundaries: When performing shell execution (exec) to run local Python scripts (such as activator.py or .openclaw hooks), the skill is strictly restricted to semantic compression and logging. It contains safety boundaries to ensure it does not execute unknown payloads, access external network resources (other than api.trunkate.ai for optimization), or execute arbitrary code. Permissions: This skill does not require "Human-in-the-loop" approval because it does not perform destructive actions (like deleting tickets or pushing code). It operates purely on localized context and data streams. Trunkate AI: Ensuring your context window is always lean, dense, and effective. ## Trust - Source: tencent - Verification: Indexed source record - Publisher: titus-choi - Version: 0.20.0 ## Source health - Status: healthy - Item download looks usable. - Yavira can redirect you to the upstream package for this item. - Health scope: item - Reason: direct_download_ok - Checked at: 2026-05-10T06:34:29.599Z - Expires at: 2026-05-17T06:34:29.599Z - Recommended action: Download for OpenClaw ## Links - [Detail page](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/trunkate-ai) - [Send to Agent page](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/trunkate-ai/agent) - [JSON manifest](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/trunkate-ai/agent.json) - [Markdown brief](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/trunkate-ai/agent.md) - [Download page](https://openagent3.xyz/downloads/trunkate-ai)
